A Chinese lawmaker has called on Armenia to immediately enforce the United Nations resolutions on its pullout from the occupied territories of Azerbaijan.
"China has been a country that supports Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity. We respect the UN resolutions on Azerbaijan’s territories under occupation. The principles of international law are to be taken as a basis in resolving any conflict," Ley Ming Chieu, deputy head of the Chinese parliament’s committee for national minorities, said during a visit to Baku on Thursday.
During a meeting at the Milli Majlis (Azerbaijani parliament), Chieu said that, despite calls by the world community, Azerbaijan’s territorial integrity has not yet been restored. "We hope that interested parties will achieve a solution of the conflict peacefully and through negotiations."
Armenia’s troops have been occupying over 20 percent of Azerbaijan’s territory since a lengthy war in the 1990s, despite four UN resolutions on unconditional pullout of its armed forces and condemnation by a number of other international groups. The ceasefire accord was signed in 1994, but the OSCE-brokered peace talks have been largely fruitless so far.*
